Is there a way within sqlldr to delete any records in a table that appears in the file with the data

Asked by sikyala in Oracle Product Info, Sun Solaris, Oracle 10.x

I have created a cron job to run sqlldr in a ksh script against text flat files on a daily basis. It runs in a loop because on any given day there may be more than one file to process. Initially I was thinking that the table it loads into should be truncated prior to the data load because just in case there were duplicate records loaded. However, after thinking about it I think that there is a potential to lose data. Is there a way within sqlldr to delete any duplicates found during the load in the table? The control file I am using currently does an append into the table. If there is a better solution I am open to it.Start Free Trial
